How to Sound Like a Miserable Old Crank

The other day, Missy and I were playing Borderlands 3. I opened a chest and celebrated finding a really good, rare gun, and it reminded me yet again that these games are a form of gambling. They keep me playing by giving me hope that I might get stuff I want if I just open that next chest or kill that next boss, just like a casino does with that next card or spin of the wheel. The only difference is that I know exactly how much the game will cost, which is nice. The downside is that the rewards are completely imaginary, but for the most part the same can be said of casinos.
